Seriously, I'm excited and can't wait to hear about everything with ASW and finaid. Also, the admissions email is the most informative decision email of all time.
I was really impressed with it. They do an excellent job of selling the school. Also, glad to officially have you in the fold now, it was making me anxious.

Thanks, man! I'm just glad I interviewed so that I got the expedited treatment, otherwise I might not have heard back until I was 2L somewhere else :lol:

The black box is the most absurd thing I've received this entire cycle. I don't think there is a single info sheet/magazine/brochure that isn't included...but the massive student curated guide book is a nice touch.

It really is encyclopedic. Although I could have done without a fifth (!) copy of the viewbook.

I am :)

Already registered with reimbursement stamp of approval.

Wondering about the dress code for this reception at the law firm. Business casual? I'm guessing it would be better to lean more to the business side on Thursday, and lean more casual on Friday?

I just registered today, so should hear about reimbursement next week (unless Ryan for some reason works on Sundays). I am definitely thinking leaning more towards the business dress due to the location...but I might end up sending them an email to see if they have any recommendations.

Good idea. If you wouldn't mind sharing their reply, that would be great. It only took 24 hours to get reimbursement approval. They approved the maximum amount which surprised me.

Will do. Just sent an email to whoever the contact was for the shuttle for the reception, so I'll let you know what I heard back. I'll be driving up, so not sure what they do for mileage re-imbursement, but hopefully it'll make it a cheap trip!

Just heard back from the admissions office:
The attire for the reception is business. If you don’t have a suit available, that is completely fine, there will be a mix of attire. I just like to let you know because the attorneys will be in suits from work.

Thanks!!

For ladies, I'm assuming a fairly conservative dress or top and pencil skirt with pumps would be good. Day two should be more casual - just about anything that isn't t shirt and jeans should be good for everybody on day two. I hope I've got the right idea about this anyway.

After being complete since 10/28, just changed to "decision mailed". Haven't received an email yet. The anxiety is killing me.

I tried to find answers to this question, so I'm sorry if it has been asked before. I would like to interview, and it is well past the December 1 cut off. Will my application just be delayed or should I not even bother applying since I cannot interview? Thanks in advance!

From what I've read in this thread http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/v ... p?t=242042 the decision will be coming in the actual mail via fedex/USPS, not email. Sorry to increase your anxiety.

That's not the case this year. Decisions are via email.
